Playing with other Supernaturals

Chapter 159 Dream

“Y-you can’t?” Medusa blankly muttered, ‘Then what was that all about for?’

Medusa teared up a bit after processing his words. Both anger and disappointment suddenly filled her. She was angry at Kisuke for giving her false hope, but more than anything, she angry and disappointed in herself for grabbing that hope, ‘I already knew that the result will be like this, but hearing their voices again after a long time made me so happy that I became desperate…’

“Now, now. Don’t go crying on me now~. I not that bad to give you false hope. I only do that on my enemies~.” Kisuke took out and spread his fan to cover his smiling face.

“W-what do you mean?” A bit of hope returned, but Medusa already learned her lesson so she suppressed it.

“Technically, I can let you talk to them, but to do that, I have to forcefully wake them up from their dormant state and it wouldn’t do any good for them… Or do you want to go with this?”

“No!” An immediate answer from Medusa. The safety of her older sisters is her top priority. She already failed once and didn’t want it for the second time. “Please don’t do it…”

“Well… It’s not like that’s your only choice~.” Kisuke chuckled as he closes his fan.

“Huh?”

Without waiting for her to respond further, Kisuke suddenly thrust his fan towards Medusa’s forehead and said, “I expect your full cooperation after this~.”

Medusa wanted to dodge but found herself locked in place, ‘What!?’ The moment his fan touched her forehead, she lost consciousness after hearing his last words, ‘What cooperation!? I won’t do everything for you!’

Kisuke caught the falling Medusa and delivered her to her room. Kisuke calculated that she’ll wake up in the morning, but still put up the barrier for security.

“How is she?” Yoruichi approached him after he exited the room.

“She’s having a good dream right now~. We’ll be going out tomorrow with her. Let’s see if they can still find her while moving around.”

“And your real intention?”

“Shopping for souvenirs ~. I can’t go home empty-handed.”

“You also have to find something to appease Sona-chan.”

“Ugh… Now that you mention it…”

Medusa woke up in a cold dark space floating, ‘Where is this? What did that guy do to me…?’ She started moving around to inspect her body. Medusa notices that she isn’t wearing any article of clothing and instinctively covered her private parts, ‘What’s going on!?’

She then finally noticed that she doesn’t have a blindfold and her jewel-like purple eyes with rectangular pupils were revealed, ‘!?’ She touches her face to make sure that her blindfold isn’t really there and started panicking after confirming it.

She didn’t have time to think of what’s going on as a dot of light appeared at a distance. For the first time in countless years, she saw light.

Normally, she would panic more at this sight as there might be other people in this place due to the existence of that light.

But that golden light is giving her a very warm feeling. A feeling that she already forgot. Without her notice, she started to float towards the direction of the light and as she near it, the warm feeling is getting stronger as the sense of nostalgia started to assault her.

Memories of the past started surfacing in her mind and she felt like she has returned to her childhood where she living a carefree life with her sisters.

Although she’s always been bullied by her older sisters, those times are the happiest for her. And even after a certain goddess cursed her existence, their company became her only harbor of peace.

As she gets near, her surroundings started to change and it became a certain place she and her sisters were exiled, the Shapeless Isle. On the tiny island, there were only the ruins of a temple, the sound of crashing waves and the beautiful blue sky. There were no bountiful forests or loving animals. This is the place where the three sisters lived in tranquility after the youngest was cursed.

Yet Medusa’s focus wasn’t on the scenery but on the middle of the island where there are two figures lying down, side by side, with their hands intertwined and a golden orb giving off a warm golden light between them. The two figures are little girls of around 130cm tall wearing a white gothic dress. Both of them has the same color as Medusa’s hair, glossy purple.

“E-elder… sisters…” Medusa muttered, stunned at the two’s appearance. A second later, she bolted into a run towards the lying figures but was stopped when an invisible wall 3 meters away from her elder sisters rebounded her away.

“Elder sisters!” Medusa stood up again and went to the invisible wall to try and breach it but failed. She used everything she had to break it but every single one of her methods failed, “Elder sister Stheno! Elder sister Euryale!” Medusa started banging the wall out of frustration until she suddenly remembered Kisuke’s words, ‘Technically, I can let you talk to them, but to do that, I have to forcefully wake them up from their dormant state and it wouldn’t do any good for them… Or do you want to go with this?’

Medusa’s mind cleared up after recalling it. She slumped down to her knees with tears running down on her cheeks. This isn’t tears due to her being unable to talk to them, but tears of happiness because of their presence, ‘I see… So that’s how is it…’ Relief overtook her as she lost her strength and lay down on her back to look at the blue sky. Peacefulness which she hadn’t felt for a while came.

The first time she heard their voices when the Pursues Clan chases after her, she thought that it was just her hallucination due to being in a near-death situation. But when she felt their power filling her, she had a conjecture that it’s their last will, not believing that they are still ‘alive’.

Even when she heard about the two souls inside her being saved by Kisuke, from the bottom of her heart… she didn’t believe that they are her elder sisters. Nevertheless, Medusa thank him as she firmly believes that he save the last will of her sisters.

After seeing this, however, she has no doubts that it’s really her sisters due to the existence of the golden orb that they are protecting. That orb is very familiar to her. It’s her Divine Core which is the source of her divinity and misfortune. It’s a flawless golden orb, but she knew that it could be dyed with corruption instantly.

Her sisters sacrificed themselves to seal the ‘Gorgon’. She finally understood why did they allow her to eat them.
